Galerie D'Art International
Galerie D'Art International maintains a commitment to support the most outstanding established and emerging artists from the international art world, including Davide Biondi, Ella Flesh, Willi Gutmann, Becky Guttin, Nicholas Kilmer, Ana Rosmaninho, Susan Schmidt, Vinca, Józef Walczak, and more.
Italian born Filippo M. Floridia D'Altavilla, Art Director and Curator of Galerie D'Art International, designed the Cedros gallery to create the best possible space for exhibitions. With more than 2,400 square feet of floor space and 18 ft. ceilings, it allows very large works to be displayed in the proper manner. The San Diego Galerie D'Art International was opened at its current location in February of 2003, after being relocated from Carlsbad, and premiered Swiss sculptor Willi Guttman, whom Floridia considers the finest sculptor in Switzerland. Gutmann's work is also exhibited in the Embarcadero in San Francisco, where his largest sculpture stands 84 feet tall.
In addition to private collectors, Galerie D'Art International has also developed an international network of government and corporate collectors. We have extensive backgrounds in publishing of Art Books, Limited Editions of Portfolios including Poetry and Prints. Filippo Floridia has been the Coordinator and Curator of more than 250 Exhibitions worldwide in cooperation with Institutes of Culture, Museums, Public Institutions, Foundations, Venice Biennale, Festival dei 2 Mondi in Spoleto, Teatro Alla Scala in Milan, and more.
Floridia has vast experience also in organizing historical and anthological exhibitions for Artists like Max Ernst, Man Ray, Mario Sironi, Lucio Fontana, Wilfredo Lam, Jose Luis Cuevas, Jean Arp, Cery Richards, Arman, Jiri Kolar, Graham Sutherland, and Alphons Mucha. In the Surrealist groups, Magritte, Masson, Miro, Dali, Marcel Jean, Picabia, Bellmer, Duchamp, Wout Hoeboer and others. In the Futurists groups, Balla, Boccioni, Prampolini, Depero, Marinetti, and more. Later on in his career, Floridia represented and showed new Artists like Jean Messagier, Miguel Ybanez, Eugenio Carmi, Gianni Bertini, Savinio, Viviani, Del Pezzo, Emilio Scanavino, etc. Over the last 10 years, he has been a part of many Artistic activities in San Diego and Tijuana, like: Artwalk '94 - Curatorial Contribution for the Palladium Exhibition; Curator for the San Diego Opera at the Museum of Man in Balboa Park for the Opera "EI Conquistador"; Curator for the Atheaneum in La Jolla for Exhibition of Miguel Ybanez dedicated to "Carmen" by Bizet.
